With ovorything to gain, anc nothing to lose, thorn is a faint and growing suspicion in the iniiiu ol Uio Campaign Manager that some con testants a.e trilling with their < ays during the hnai mioe week ; of .nis campaign. TWO WEEKS TO WIN And the queer pa. t oi it u that ; c ae folks vvlvo^couhi win .a t ar, .st.ani ,10 l i.a; n ereiy be- » dtius? *of a loafing streak during ihe • lost critl-, < u mm of tlie whole race. W hy anybody should s.ac.v up i .o.t.s aiter working tootn and toenail lor live or six weeks and with the prize just m sight is beyond comprehension. SUSTAINED EFFORTS NEEDED NOW Only sustained efforts at this critical time will ‘‘bring home the bacon" for you, and with but t\.o mo e weeks to go it behooves any 'orson to'’ put in every day, am! all day, doing nothing but soliciting new subscriptions and renewals in i Florence Daily Times. All that has gone before is as a drop in the bucket compared to the vol- i.me cl bminess that pours into a newspaper ofiice during the linal fourteen days of a race. REASON IS SIMPLE The reason of this is simple; nearly every con testant lias met up with dozens and score of L lends who said, "I haven’t the money right now but will give you a subscription near the close.” Well, this is “near th'“ close.” So near that it ( ou t take much stretch of the imagination to see the four automobiles rolling away with their new owners. And these folks who have prom ised are coining across in a majority of instances. Then another source of subscriptions are second and even third payments of renewals. lad of folks who never took The Florence Daily Times subscribed at the beginning and have found Flor ence’s only daily so to their liking that they are extending their subscription from ;ui original three or six months to a year or two or more years. And those who have taken the paper for years hatte no hesitancy to renew for a /ear or more in advance. This, with new subscription business that can still be easily had, is the rea son for a statpment that th« volume of business during the dosing weeks will swell into the Niagara like stream is not far fcfrhe<’, CASH GOI-.S fONIGHT Interest today centers on the $4.'. to he award (d as special r ash prizes. $l!i gin s to the con testant, rega.dl ss of where tlie contestant re sides, who turns in the greatest number of new subiLiiptionsf.
